Its bizarre to think someone out there could actually believe they need so much money-weather its 20billion,or 200billion.
Heck,I doubt I could spend a single billion,although I would give it my best shot..

i agree. They keep throwing around figures and swearing that he stole a bunch of money. He is a politician and therefore no angel for sure. They are
all crooks as far as I'm concerned. But this line is old and stupid. The so called math they are basing this on is outrageous. I have come across
articles that say the opposite,that when he took office he was pretty broke,and the palaces that they claim are his,aren't. I don't post them on
here because I don't feel there is anyway to confirm or deny these claims.Nor is there anyway to confirm the ones you posted (though interesting).
Its fanciful math at best.

Lets assume Putin have 200 Billion dollars that he have thru corruption given himself from holding the position he have in Russia. Very immoral and
not good at all.

Lets look at the western side and see what happens there. www.usdebtclock.org...
18 Trillion dollars of debt have been created from fractal lending for the citizens of US to pay back. 154000 dollar per taxpayer, 56000 dollar per
citizen. That debt is even higher than Greece.

And with free money banking schemes pawns like Warren Buffett can buy companies and create Oligopols and Monopolies that control the market making
everyone else a slave to their will. Scary what a corrupt banking system controlled by a few owners + control over media + control over politicians
can create in the west. Fascism 2.0 where the economic sector took over government and media.

Both the western system and the Russian system is corrupt. Maybe it is time to fix the corruption where ever it is and not using other places
corruption as an excuse/deflection for not dealing with the problem.

Those with real power do not show up on richest people list since they know how to hide wealth in corporations so they look poor when checking their
private wealth.

Would I be surprised.....No. The Russian people area easily lead and tend to stay in line. Putin knows this and uses it for everything it is worth. In
the very near future 5-10 years the Russian people are going to figure out what happened and the game will be over for fuhrer Putin.

There's a Chinese family with over a Trillion in wealth. The forbes list a a joke. I don't think this makes Putin the richest in the world, even if
it was true. To think the richest people would let their wealth be known to the world... seriously people? How naive are you?

Naive.......If you make 100,000 a year but actually had 200 billion you would tell the world all about it. I love the irony of your post and I am
100% sure the irony will be lost for you.

Fractal lending is the perfect way to create money out of thin air. You just create a deposit from IOU and say how much it should have and it is
created. And you do not have to have anything real to back it up since only part of the money is used at one time. One of the reasons banks love cards
instead of physical money. No banks runs crashing the system when all is done by computers.

The ones who are 0.00001% have learned that, talking about what they own is a sure way for people to find out things, that they want to keep hidden
about how they became 0.00001%. Only fools think they can talk and stay 0.00001%.

José Alberto "Pepe" Mujica Cordano has been President of Uruguay since 2010.........He has been described as "the world's 'humblest' president",
due to his austere lifestyle and his donation of around 90 percent of his $12,000 (£7,500) monthly salary to charities that benefit poor people and
small entrepreneurs

South America has traditionaly always leaned to the left, except when America conducts coups and installs fascist dictators that is, however as a rule
of thumb they are communists and bad people.

Way to go Putin, sleight of hand trick

I'm sure his master mind has some future plans with all that dirty money. Could be rebuilding money after devastation happens.

Or could just be an empty allegation !

I just recently read an article that summarizes it pretty well.

Instead of seeing Russian politics as an inchoate democratic system being pulled down by history, accidental autocrats, popular inertia, bureaucratic
incompetence, or poor Western advice, I conclude that from the beginning Putin and his circle sought to create an authoritarian regime ruled by a
close-knit cabal…who used democracy for decoration rather than direction.
In other words, the most important story of the past twenty years might not, in fact, have been the failure of democracy, but the rise of a new form
of Russian authoritarianism. Instead of attempting to explain the failures of the reformers and intellectuals who tried to carry out radical change,
we ought instead to focus on the remarkable story of one group of unrepentant, single-minded, revanchist KGB officers who were horrified by the
collapse of the Soviet Union and the prospect of their own loss of influence. In league with Russian organized crime, starting at the end of the
1980s, they successfully plotted a return to power. Assisted by the unscrupulous international offshore banking industry, they stole money that
belonged to the Russian state, took it abroad for safety, reinvested it in Russia, and then, piece by piece, took over the state themselves. Once in
charge, they brought back Soviet methods of political control—the only ones they knew—updated for the modern era.

It is quite funny to see people arguing over how much money a dirty lying scumbag politician has....IMO 1 billion -200 billion does it really matter
?... it is too much any way you look at it......the people of earth should not allow wealth hoarding when we have so many starving people all over the
planet it is just nuts.....

Anyhow to plug my own thread .."The worlds poorest president" if only more leaders were like this guy....

Demonisation of Russia in the run-up to a possible war with Russia knows no bounds. Shills abound

Perhaps they are trying to hide Americas objective in the Ukraine.

Paul Wolfowitz, the neoconservative who was Deputy Secretary of Defense under the Bush regime, declared:

“Our first objective is to prevent the re-emergence of a new rival, either on the territory of the former Soviet Union or elsewhere, that poses a
threat on the order of that posed formerly by the Soviet Union. This is a dominant consideration underlying the new regional defense strategy and
requires that we endeavor to prevent any hostile power from dominating a region whose resources would, under consolidated control, be sufficient to
generate global power.”

Is Wolfowitz, when referring to “hostile power” referring to any power independent of Washington’s control?
